Homework Policy

 

Due to the hands-on nature of the subjects taught in this department, homework may be assigned when deemed feasible to support a lesson.

It has also been the policy of the Tech Ed Dept. to assign homework as a means for students to receive extra help when needed. Homework also boosts confidence and self-esteem. 

 

Homework will be assigned under the following guidelines:

 

a.     Homework will be deemed necessary and will be assigned if students are falling behind in their normal daily course of study.

b.     Homework can also be assigned at the request of parent or student for extra help in support of and to reinforce the daily lesson.

c.     Any homework assignment will be directly related to the subject matter at hand.

d.     Some homework carries the option of credit/no credit at the teachers’ discretion.

e.     Homework will be passed in to the teacher and/or substitute on the day following the assignment.

f.      Homework that is illegible will not be accepted.
